A Dedication...

The song you are listening to is "Gone Away" by the Offspring... dedicated to a little boy who has changed my life forever. I may have never laid eyes on you, Juju, but you have filled my heart...truly FILLED my heart! See Mimi's poem below... grab the tissues. Mimi is asking that in lieu of flowers anyone who wishes to give will make a donation to Cooks Hospital or Make-A-Wish Foundation in honor of Julian.

I have just recently read the care pages and my heart is very heavy for that family. My little guy turns 4 on Saturday and I can't imagine having to let him go. I pray for strength and peace for that family. That they remember the good times more than the bad and remember that Julian is the lucky one. We are all still stuck here on earth while he is dancing with the king!!!!

Such an unselfish person...Mimi is!

I know the Lord is glorified through this trial.

It is amazing how one little boy made such a big difference in so many people. I too, have never layed eye's on Julian, nor did I meet his family. But they are all so full of love that it pours out of the computer to anyone who reads their story. My heart has been very heavy since Saturday morning when I read that Julian passed away. Mimi is on my mind throughout the day, everything I do reflects what she is experiencing right now. I'm hugging my little ones a bit tighter, I'm taking extra time to just let them sit with me, or snuggle me, or smell me. I'm so much more appreciative of what I have. I got the gift of love through Julian and his journey. This is the best gift I could have ever gotten, and it came at the cost of one sweet, little King.

My girls start rocking out EVERY time I check your blog and Julian's song comes on! And of course, I tear up because I think that he would probably be doing the same thing if he were still here on earth. At least we're assured that he's dancing with the angels...
